How Do You Roll (your charging cable)?

[Dave-O]

Ours isn’t so glamorous but it works. The plug socket is mounted just forward of the driver door when parked where as the EVSE is right at the back of the car. Ignore the mobile unit as this photo was taken while we awaited a free replacement from Grizzl-e.

Put me in the “boring“ category. I thought about a separate holder closer to the car but my Juicebox indication light changes colors when plugged in. I was afraid to mess it up by not plugging it in. Maybe other Juice Box owners could confirm or dispute?

I don’t worry much about neatness on a daily basis. I just loop the cord over the CPHF unit a couple times to get it out of the way of me and the tires.

A cheap garden hose reel works for me.

Nothing near as fancy here. We started with the factory EVSE and a holster dock and J-hook we bought on Amazon..

But after about 8-9 months, we bought a Grizzl-e, but use the same holster / J-hook...

So now, this is "how we roll" the factory EVSE...

I'm thinking we need to dress up that wall a bit...we don't have any extra wheels, but I like the idea of painting it something nice and special. Maybe we'll find a "lightening" graphic or something...

Joel - Your solution is inventive and the best idea I have seen on this forum. I am getting out my measuring tape to see if I can do something similar. You get an A+ in my book.

Glad I could help. good luck with this easy project. I was going to use rollers on the cable but the hooks work fine and less money

I don’t roll mine. I park close to the charger but I have a long cord, so I loop it up over the garage door track mount (not the track itself).
I like the up and down, that way the cord doesn’t stretch across the walk way.

Here's how we roll. Keeps the cable far enough overhead to not hit our head.

On my outdoor Grizzl-E single cable in Virginia I use this:

Hi - Are you using any of the JuiceBox Web enabled features? If you are, do you like them?

No, I don't use them. Not even sure what they are. I just plug in every 7-10 days and like magic the next morning I'm "juiced up".

I did call them last year when I looked at some data on the app that was "inconsistent" and she pointed out to me I have the kind of router that essentially "shuts off or rotates or something" every 13 min. so the data was incomplete. I don't recall exactly what it was, but the woman on the phone knew. Let me know what features there are.

My Ford Mobile charger is just a tangled mess outside. ?

(The red colors/trim matches the mustangs “rapid red”.

I LOVE your cord-catcher.... but would suggest you mount the (included) plastic bracket to hold your charger body and provide strain relief on the plug/receptacle. Mount the bracket SLIGHTLY higher than needed so there is a little "S" bend in the charger plug 'tail'.
